I've also heard people (Japanese and Frederik Schodt on a podcast) pronounce it as TEZkah - in fact one of the vids mentioned how the Japanese tend to drop parts of some names/words.

It's definitely NOT tezZOOkah although to my American eyes, it sure looks like it SHOULD be pronounced that way!

I can't help but wonder - if Dr. Tezuka were alive today - how he might integrate the leaders of nations and conflicts we live with in the actual 21st century. :unsure: That's not meant to start a political discussion . . . but it's obvious he felt it was important to make examples of tyrannical dic...

Open Office is an EXCELLENT substitute - you can open the files in MS Word (you can even save them as .doc files) and it is FREE.

Another possibility - can you migrate the existing programs on your old computer to the laptop? (Or, even better, do you have the original install discs for Office?)

Those are good scenes, for sure but .... Naahhh gotta be The Hug. It's all about a parent's gut-wrenching love for their child and a child's unconditional love for their parent. That was Tenma's total breakthrough moment, and Astro's moment to see through his father's flaws, and love him in spite of...

Yeah, Penguin I think you got the wrong impression. Dan told me he saw Cobalt and Atlas as being in agreement that humans weren't exactly the greatest creatures walking God's green earth (I don't think he said Cobalt hated humans, but he sure didn't feel the sense of affection and stewardship toward...
